The child's tears as you smash their favourite toy with a hammer. You only have to worry about it happening the once that way 😉

wd40? i have never tried it on clothes though...
I have tried it on clothes. You have to wash the WD40 out in the wash but that's easy.
Washing up liquid gets quite a few things out (bike grease etc.)
Alcohol hand gel rubbed in wit_a toothbrush also worth a try (gets out dried on blood).
For hard surfaces, eg whiteboards, the best way to remove permanent marker is to go over the ink with a non-permanent marker; the solvent breaks down both sets of ink. For clothes, I think I'd want to experiment on something sacrificial first. (-:
